- Bharat Jodo Yatra resumes from J&K’s Awantipora; Kharge seeks Amit Shah’s intervention in ensuring adequate security
- 28/1/23
Mallikarjun Kharge’s letter to Amit Shah comes after the Bharat Jodo Yatra was suspended for the afternoon session on Friday following a “security lapse”
Congress leader Rahul Gandhi resumed his Bharat Jodo Yatra from Awantipora in Jammu and Kashmir’s Pulwama district on Saturday, a day after cancelling the foot-march in Anantnag district after the party alleged security lapse.
The Congress on Friday had alleged that police arrangements by the Union Territory’s administration “completely collapsed”.
On the allegation, the Jammu and Kashmir administration had said pressure on security resources due to the size of the crowd, larger than planned, may have created an impression of lack of security arrangements during the Rahul Gandhi-led march. news credit :THE Hindu
